GPW 53126
Imported from Pacific in 1947, one owner till I bought it in 1982. Never had a rebuild so very nearly all Ford. Restored by me in 1984 noting all Ford details and being careful to preserve them. Has had M31c pedestal fitted (chassis brackets in place )Hood # is an educated guess as previous owner disc sanded hood! Original paint on engine is Ford light gray. Interestingly,data plate is stamped "2150 lbs", ( GP weight )
